replying to u/Direct_Tomorrow5921: Craft
“I feel like they hit the sweet spot in between “Traditional fine dining” and “Not actually that pricey”. Service is fantastic and they are led by a head manager that has an incredible life story & work ethic. Get their donut dessert if you go, $15 and really good.”
